	Herbert Sutcliffe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Herbert Sutcliffe (born November 24, 1894, Summerbridge, Harrogate, Yorkshire, England; died January 22, 1978, Cross Hills, Yorkshire, England) was arguably the greatest opening batsman in cricket history and undoubtedly one of the greatest players of any type the game has known.
		Sutcliffe also possessed the most remarkable self-belief: he could believe that no bowler was capable of dismissing him (not unrealistic at times) and this gave him a remarkable capacity to fight in the most difficult conditions.
		Though Sutcliffe hit his highest Test score of 194 at the SCG that winter and averaged 73 for the tour, an amazing decline set in the following year in a summer where conditions were much more favourable to batsmen.

		Sutcliffe was 12 and Maddy nine when Leicestershire resumed on 32-1 and although Maddy played some attacking shots it was half-an-hour before Sutcliffe managed his first run of the day.
		That gave him 59.33 per cent of the total runs scored in the innings, the third highest percentage in Yorkshire's history and beaten only by Herbert Sutcliffe (61 per cent v Hampshire at Headingley in 1932) and Geoff Boycott (59.48 per cent v Warwickshire at Edgbaston in 1971).
		White rode his luck, twice being put down by skipper Vince Wells at first slip on 31 and 84 and then by Ashley Wright at cover on 150, but all in all it was a magnificent effort which contained 26 fours and lasted for 216 deliveries.

		He batted well until he allowed himself to be run out rather than Sutcliffe, but did not retain his place.
		In 1933, however, Bakewell reached his highest point, twice in successive matches breaking the record for Northamptonshire's highest innings, and doing so in spectacular style with seemingly impossible strokes.
